One thing I picked up from Birdie's video about JEB Stuart that I overlooked before.
Power = Means X Will. Reduce means or will to zero, and it all ends up the same. Sherman was reducing will. I think he might have ended the war sooner had he gone after means, (The Army of Tennessee), but will was probably much cheaper in blood.
